"A tree from my property damaged my neighbor's fence and I contracted with JNJ Fencing. John requested a picture which I provided and he came out the following day. Job was completed in record time Both my neighbor and I are quite pleased with the pair. Workers were courteous, affable and engaging. I would definitely recommend this company. Should I ever need any future fencing work to be done, I would absolutely reach out to JNJ Fencing."

"Young man arrived quickly to discuss small projects. He was such a delight speaking with him. Before all was done he repaired a light fixture, removed some broken bulbs, repaired and reinstalled a closet shelf and trimmed the hedges around the property. Would Definitely Recommend!!"

"We had a few rotted spots on our house soffit and fascia that needed repair. They communicated with us and came on the day and time they said they would. They finished the job in half a day and we were very pleased with the results. They even took a piece of our wood to have the paint matched so they could paint it to look like the rest of the house. Everyone was very friendly and professional. Would definitely hire this company again!"

"Fantastic!!! The team made me a priority and not only reached out but were able to get to my location in less than 10 hours. Competitors in the same area werenâ t even able to get me on the books for weeks. They came out and were professional and got the job done very quickly. They were able to repair my damaged dry wall and then paint the area to match the rest of the wall. I will definitely hire them again. Great job done by truly experienced craftsman. â­ ï¸ â­ ï¸ â­ ï¸ â­ ï¸ â­ ï¸"

"Mr. Pope and his assistant from Barco Electrical did an excellent job. They performed a survey, provided a timely estimate and completed the work on an agreed upon schedule. The work performed was top notch. Installed the outlets and switch exactly where I needed them. Upon completion they cleaned up the job site and left everything neat and tidy. Would highly recommend them for any electrical needs and I would definitely use them again in the future."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
